senator grassly said, you should remember that the current president of the united states was elected with 43% of the vote, chuck grassly is now in his 35th year in the senate and he's never had a better line on the senate floor than he did that day. i had forgotten then that bill clinton in a three-way race with george bush and ross perot with only 43% of the vote and i sat there thinking, well, we don't have a quick come back to that line. and we didn't. no democratic senator chose to argue with chuck on that point. what i saw then clearly when chuck grassly said that about bill clinton winning the presidency with 43% of the vote was real anger, real bitterness, a real sense of injustice in senator glassily and other republican senators on the floor that day. you could feel how they felt it was an almost illegitimate presidency, his presidency winning with 43% of the vote. none of them had seen that before. it surely shaped the condescending and defiant attitude they had toward bill clinton on every piece of legislation that he proposed, the 43% president. and tonight, 23 years afte
